12 Claims.
The invention relates to phytolipase preparations and methods of producing the same. The phytolipases which are fat splitting enzyme preparations obtained from vegetable materials, are usually associated with toxic albumins. As
an example, Ricinus lipase obtained from Ricinus seeds contains ricin, the highly active toxic albumin 01 the Ricinus seed.
More particularly, the present invention relates to phytolipase preparations which are poor in ticularly poor'in ricin according to the invention contain so little ricin that the extract prepared from the acetone dry preparation, even in a concentration 01' 1:2000, does not have an agglutlnat ing action. In certain cases it is not necessary have been made from the raw materials mentioned above, dyspepsia due to insuflicient quantities of stomach-pancreas lipases.
Another embodiment of the present invention N is the process of separating the toxic albuminsl irom the phytolipases. It consists in causing the aqueous solutions of salts, particularly alkali metal salts of organic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms, to act on the emulsions prepared from vegetable raw materials and containing the phytolipases. A large variety of organic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms, such as aliphatic saturated or unsaturated acids, hydroaromatic acids, aliphatic hydroxy acids, aromatic acids,- aromatic hydroxy-acids, amino-acids, acids containing nitro groups, heterocyclic acids, may be used. The preferred salts of organic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms to be employed according to reduce the quantity ottoxic albumins which are present in the phytolipases, to the same degree as in the above mentioned example. Phytolipase preparations which, in the form oi an extract prepared from the acetone dry preparation just fall to have an agglntinating action when diluted to 115,000, or,1:20,000, are to be regarded as poor in toxic aibumins and as being covered by the present invention, the said preparations only containing about 10 per cent of the toxic albumin content of the usual phytolipase preparationswhich do not come within the scope of a the present invention. For convenience of description such phytolipase preparations will be described in the claims as eiiectively free of toxic albumins.
The" most important phytolipase preparation poor in toxic albumins according to the present invention is Ricinus lipase poor in ricin. But other phytolipases poor in toxic albumins are important as well, for example, the phytolipase preparation poor in abrin,'which is obtained from Abrus.,,rirecatorius, or the phytolipase preparavention:
to the present invention are salts that render it possible to separate the toxic albumins from the 'lipases without, at the same time, materially impairing the lipatic activity. Among the numerous organic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms from the various classes mentioned above, isovaleric .acid has proved most useful for the process according to the invention.' By employing isovaleric acid, both practically complete separation of the toidc albumin; and preservation of the lipatic efl'iciency oi the lipase preparations are rendered possible. In addition to lsovaleric acid, hippurlc acid is particularly suitable for the process according to the invention, inasmuch as it "has the advantage of being completely odorless.
Among the numerous other acids which have been tested, the following may be mentioned as being well adapted for the process according to the in- Ricinoleic, caprylic, 'lauric, gluconic, acrylic, tiglic, maionic, succinic, glutaric, fuma-ri, citric, benzoic, salicylic, orthonitribenzoic, paraoxybenzoic, gallic, mandelic, cinnamic, nicotinic acids.
tions poor in toxic albumins, which are prepared from Chelidonium majus (celandine) or Irom.
kola-nuts. The phytollpasepreparations poor in Partly, the separation of the toxic albumins, when eifected by these acids, is not as complete as when isovaleric acid is used; partly, these acids somewhat impair the lipatic activity. Nevertheless, the eflect-which can be secured by these acids, is suflicient for them to be used for the production of phytolipases poor in toxic albumins. When using acids that somewhat impair the lipatic activity of .the' phytolipases, it is-preferable to carry out the separation at a temperature as low as possible, for example, at refrigerator temperature. 1
Furthermore, it has proved advantageous to are valuable remedies against adjust the solutions of salts of organic acids with emulsion to which an aqueous solution of about 1 to per cent of alkali metal salts of organic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms is added. After an interaction of several hoursin many cases a reaction time of to 48 hours has proved useful-separation of the oily and aqueous layers is effected, for example, by centrifuging. During this separation the lipases which are practically free from toxic albumins, remain in the oily layer. The toxic albumins, on the other hand, pass into the aqueous phase; it can be proved by analysis that the efliciency of the toxic albumins, to a large extent, has been preserved in the aqueous phase. Hence, in the process according to the invention, it is not a matter of the toxic albumins being blocked by the action of the organic acids, but of the said toxic albumin's being actually separated from the phytolipases.
The cream which has been prepared in the described manner, in addition to the lipases freed from toxic albumins, contains more or less water. The water can be removed from the oil emulsions of the lipases by adding glycerin or another dehydrating polyhydric alcohol to the water containing emulsions, and thereafter effecting another separation of the phases by centrifuging. If necessary, in order to secure a complete dehydration, the addition of glycerin followed by separation of the phases has to be repeated. Whether the lipase solutions are free from toxic 'albumins or still containthem, the eliminationof the water from the oil emulsions is an important step, the stability of the lipases being increased thereby.
When a pharmaceutical preparation which is poor in ricin and does not exhibit the purgative effects of castor oil, is to be obtained from Ricinus lipase it is preferable to remove from the oil emulsion--prepared in the manner described in the preceding paragraph and containing glycerin and Ricinus lipase poor in ricin-the majority of the castor oil by a solvent such as benzine, or to displace it by another fat, wax, or the like. It is an advantage to retain certain ofthe lipase inmany cases being increased thereby. Finally, by means of adsorbents, solid preparations may be obtained, if desired.
In order to ascertain the effect secured by the process according to the invention, it is necessary to test the agglutlnating power of both the starting material and'the final products. With this object in view, first acetone dry preparations are.
made. To the solutions to be tested acetone is added till the entire oil and water has passed into far the dilution of the extract had to hemamounts of oil in the preparations, the stability ried, in order to cause the agglutinating action to disappear.
In the various tests, either the border concentration at which agglutination was still to be observed, or the border concentration at which the agglutinating effect had Just disappeared, were ascertained. In every subsequent test the dilution was double the amount as in the previous one.
The process according to the invention can be" modified in various respects. The following examples are intended to illustrate several embodiments of the invention; but they are not to be regarded as limitations.
Example 1 By triturating Ricinus seeds with water, an emulsion is prepared in a known manner. This emulsion is separated from the other seed constituents by centrifuging, a cream containing the lipase and serving as starting material being thus obtained. This cream is essentially a castor oil emulsion but, inter alia, also contains fair amounts of albuminous substance and the lipase of the Ricinus seed as well as ricin.
- 150 grams of this cream containing 10 phytolipase units per gram, 1. e., a total of 1500'phytolipase units, are mixed with 200 cc. of a 5 per cent isoyaleric acid solution. By addition of NaOH, the pH of the isovaleric acid solution had been adjusted to 7.2. Then the cream admixed with isovaleric acid is allowed to stand at 47 C. for 24 hours, whereupon it is centrifuged. 95 grams of a cream which contains 14.2 phytolipase units per gram, are obtained as an oily layer in this manner. The recovered amount of lipase, accordingly, amounts to 1350 phytolipase units, .i. e., to 90 per cent of the starting material. This lipase is practically free from ricin, for the acetone dry preparation made from this product, even in a concentration of 1:2000, does not have an agglutinating action, whereas the ricin content of the starting material was so large therefore, involve any considerable losses of lipase, the yield of lipase amounting to about 80 per cent based on the .starting material employed.
when using alkali metal salts of isovaleric acid for the elimination of ricin, it is possible to preserve 100 per cent of the lipase effect of the starting material, provided a practically complete elimination of ricin-is not necessary. This is of a cream with 17.3 phytolipase units per gram.
The total yield of phytolipase, therefore, amounts to 1886 phytolipase units, i, e., practically the same amount which was present in the starting material.
, tions.
Y The above experiment difiers from the first one by a slightly lower temperature and a shorter time of reaction. The agglutinating power of the a purified preparation is slightly higher, accordingly. The border concentration at which agglutination was still to be observed, is 1:4000.
This slightly higher agglutinating power of the purified: preparation, however, involves a practically 100 per cent recovery of the lipase employed, as has been mentioned before.
Example 2 lowed to stand at refrigerator temperature for 15 hours gives, on centrifuging, 130 grams of a cream containing 6.5 phytolipase units per gram, 1. e., a total of 845 phytolipase units. The agglutinating power of the acetone dry preparation is considerably diminished. Whereas in the case of the starting material agglutination was still to be observed at a dilution of 1:l92,000, the purified preparation showed a border concentration of the agglutinating action of 116000. The yield of lipase, in this example, is not as good as in Example 1; besides, elimination of the agglutinating action is less complete.
Example 3 150 grams of a cream with 12.8, phytolipase units per gram, i. e., a total of 1920 phytolipase units, are mixed with 200 cc. of a 5 per cent caprylic acid solution-which has been adjusted to a pH=7 .2 by addition of NaOH. This mixture was allowed to stand at 14 to 16 C. for 15 hours. On centrifuging, 100 grams of a cream with 10 phytoiipase units per gram were recovered, the yield based on liapse amounting to about 50 per cent. The agglutinating power of this preparation was stronger than that of the other prepara- The border concentration at which agglutination was still to be observed, was 1:12,000. It is true that oap'rylic acid is inferior to isovaleric acid regarding separation of ricin and preservation of Ricinus lipase; this acid, however, will be sufficient for many practical purposes.
Erample4' 150 grams of a cream prepared according to Example 1 and containing 10.5 phytolipase units,
per gram, i. e. a total of 1575 phytolipase units, are admixed with 200 cc. of an 8.8 per cent hippuric acid solution which has been adjusted to a pH='l.2 by addition of NaQ-H, and allowed to tively free of toxic albumins which comprises treating oil emulsions containing the phytolipases with aqueous solutions of alkali metal salts oforganic acids with 4 or more carbon atoms.
